10 WWE Superstars that were overshadowed by a more famous sibling

#3 Deuce/Sim Snuka

“Superfly” Jimmy Snuka is remembered for his death - defying leaps, and for the infamous Piper’s Pit segment all those years ago. What many people wouldn’t remember, though, is the fact that Jimmy’s son is a former WWE tag team champion! Sim Snuka competed on WWE’s main roster from 2007 to 2009, before being released by the organisation. Snuka, competing under the ring name Deuce, won the tag team gold on SmackDown along with his partner, Domino before being traded to RAW.

However, not many remember Deuce/Sim Snuka’s time in the company, other than for that one solitary instance when he failed to catch The Undertaker at WrestleMania, leading to the Deadman falling on his head! His sister, Tamina however has been with the company since 2010. While Tamina hasn’t won any championships in this time, she has managed the likes of AJ Lee and The Usos, and is more recognisable than her brother.
